yeah i had to do this a bunch of times behind my mom's suv and my brother's sedan to get the right adjustment as not to blind the hell out of other people. The long screws (2 of them) are for adjusting the high beam. The small screws.. there's 2 of them ... are used to adjust the projectors.

And yes, I do think you're right one is a little high. The left one seems fine.

Hrmmm thanks for the reply. That kinda sucks that you have to remove it and adjust. As my driveway isn't flat and i can't excatly start taking my bumper off at some random place at night. Unless i goto some friends house to do it haha.

I'll see what i can do. Damn why does it have to be so much hassle.

There's the two flater screws for the low beam. Is the visable one from the engine bay side by any chance the one that adjusts the height? Or is the one furthur in which requires removing the bumper the one that adjusts the height?

I can't test it out right now as i'm at work :P haha

they both adjust height since they work by adjusting the beam on a diagonal angle you will have to adjust both which requires pulling the headlight out adjust and place it back and then look. I know it sucks and I have no clue why they did it on the diagonal instead of horizontal and vertical

Got my cutoff fixed. Took about 1-2hrs. Taking off the bumper like 5times. I can finally see beams on the road. Haha. Much better visability. Thanks to a friend that helped me out. Damn these projectors are tricky.
